Introducing our OFFICIAL CHARITY PARTNER Back on My Feet founded by Anne Mahlum ❤️💯

Back on My Feet is a national nonprofit organization that empowers individuals experiencing homelessness or addiction to rebuild their lives through the power of fitness, community, and accountability.

This year, you can track your miles on the treadmill at the Back On My Feet Booth at The Glasshouse and participants can walk, jog, or run, with every mile contributing toward a collective mileage goal for the day- making it a community effort.

From there, Back on My Feet helps turn that momentum into lasting change, connecting members with employment and housing resources, financial education, skills training, and other tools to support long-term stability and independence. At the heart of the program is a simple but powerful belief: nobody runs alone. With the encouragement of a community beside them, members discover that every mile, every morning, and every small victory can be the beginning of something much bigger.

Miles for Change - “Every Mile Creates Opportunity”

Sponsors could donate per mile or unlock donations at mileage milestones. Take One Step Forward. Every mile completed today helps create opportunities for individuals experiencing homelessness. Because at Back on My Feet...Nobody Runs Alone🔥
